Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Cannot say enough about the battery. The computer boots fast, and the built in software loads relatively quickly. After all this time it still works just as efficiently as the day i got it.

Worked great for that, and has been exceptional for personal use as well. Honestly this is one of the best purchases i have ever made.

It's very customizable the touchpad that is. The touchscreen is pretty sensitive and accurate. Only drawback is it only has one usb port - although it also has a usb-c port, keyboard is not backlit.



Cons

Acer r-13 runs a beta version of android and you need to switch between chrome os and android betaimdb and direct tv presently will not operate on this beta version. It is much slower than my 5 year old dell inspiron and just as heavy!

Taskbar at the bottom of the screen randomly disappears and will not re-appear unless i logout and back in. As it is a year of operation for a device like this is disappointing and acer should be ashamed for not covering this defect.

The touchscreen locks up after a few minutes. Not in sleep mode with the lid just closed, but powered off. The touchscreen is faulty, with tons of phantom touches being registered at random.

This really stinks and now they want me to send the unit back to texas again. First thanks amazon for lousy packing.

Playing slither. The worst. Returning first thing in the morning. I realize now that chromebooks are trash.

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The touch screen is way to touchie


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Its not the 12 hours google boasts realistically you can get about 56 hours of near constant browsing out of one charge which is really not that bad


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    However if youre using it for streaming video itll probably only be about 34 hours between charges


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    As an ereader the vertical view is aesthetically pleasing to read pdfs and news articles but the touch keyboard and scroll function can get kind of laggy and not all webpages are optimized to be viewed in the vertical dimensions


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Its a touchpad that responds to taps as well as clicks and sometimes the clicking part gets stuck and essentially gets stuck on a constant right click


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Its only happened once or twice and may be due to debris getting stuck underneath im not sure and with laptops theres no quick easy way to get inside and check it out


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Given that its a chromebook and does not allow for use of third party software installs i would only recommend this laptop for casual to moderate use anything more ram intensive or specific than internet browsing and id probably go for a beefier windows or mac
